Manufacturer
Seiko Instruments Inc. (SII)
Attribution is time-dependent in this model: a design keeps its identity when a company is absorbed, and only the maker record moves. Every row of the designs table below carries the source for its own attribution.
Family lines
4 designs are attributed to Seiko Instruments Inc. (SII). 3 of them sit in 1 recorded family line under the Heritage sense of the word — it is drawn below. The other 1 stands alone in this sense, and no other sense of “family” puts it in one either: this corpus records no relative for it — not that none exists.

A cluster profile is a rule for what counts as descent, not an opinion about it. These are the lines this maker’s designs sit in under the site’s other rules — a broader one keeps edge types that the Heritage sense does not traverse, so the same root can appear here with more members. Nothing below is a relationship the corpus does not hold; it is the same claims read under a different filter, and each view says on its own page which edge types it traversed.
| Line | Sense | Calibers | This maker’s |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seiko 4R36 / NH36 | Everything (debug) | 3 | 3 |
| Seiko 4R36 / NH36 | Based-on star (WatchBase sense) | 3 | 3 |
Corporate history
These edges move ownership and names, never designs. This is why “who made the 7750 in 1978” and “who makes it now” are different questions with different answers about the same construction.

The export gives these edges a claim id but no inline reference, so the claim id is shown as the citation anchor rather than a source link.
